Transition periods to SARS-CoV-2 outbreak in Harris County community and among inpatients in Texas Medical Center. Critical phases of SARS-CoV-2 outbreak (i.e., exponential growth + deceleration stages) in Harris County community (top row) and among TMC inpatients (bottom row). Dark gray areas indicate exponential growth and deceleration stages. Yellow areas indicate lag periods between transition to exponential growth in the community and in local hospitals. Light green areas indicate lag periods between transition to stationary/linear growth in the community and in local hospitals.
